My baby was born a month ago and has a lot of eczema on her face. I have used three or four kinds of medicines, but the effect is still not very good, what should I do?
If the face is red and swollen you can use a thick towel to apply cold compresses, once every half hour, each time to apply ten minutes, after applying the towel to wash the towel and then apply again. After the redness and swelling on the face subsides, you can use zinc oxide paste with euthyrox ointment 1:1 mixture of topical application, twice a day can be.
Hi mama, the medicine should be used consistently, but the heart of this problem is that you need to find the cause. Eczema is stubborn and doesn't work immediately.
Where does your baby's eczema grow?
If it's on the face, chances are it's hot, and that's what you're covering your baby with by overdressing him or covering him too thickly with a blanket.
If it's growing on the neck, it could be caused by the baby spilling milk or drooling onto the neck.
If it's growing in a place like the armpit, it's most likely caused by you not observing it for a long time, and the baby's impermeable here, and it's humid and hot.
The most likely places are the sides of the thighs and the buttocks, and a big reason here is that your baby peed or pooped and you mishandled him. Or it is caused by the inappropriate diaper used. You have to observe, which is the cause and then treat the symptoms.
If the first few cases, it is very good to solve the problem, you usually often give the baby with water to clean, clean and then wipe clean and apply baby powder or prickly heat powder, always keep the place dry, avoid using some of the less breathable bibs ah, diapers ah and so on. Just keep an eye on it and change it often. This will keep a period of time will have the effect. If the baby is not too serious, do not recommend giving him medication, after all, the small baby intestines or skin or, not as brown as adults, it is easy to hurt.
If the reason for the diaper, hurry to change the brand, do not feel that it has not been used up and wasted to keep insisting, so that the baby is too suffering. My mom always said, adults every day to clip an auntie's napkin is difficult, not to mention always itch it, haha, my mom's words words are not rough ha. Don't let the baby get away with it just because it can't talk.
My son every day I wash his face, wipe his hands, wash his neck and then rub him with baby shampoo for babies. Now he is used to it, every time I rub him with the scent and wipe his hands, he giggles and the kids love beauty, haha. We have never had eczema, he is sometimes hot, scratching his face, irritable, I know he is not comfortable, immediately reduce a piece of clothing, a moment will be full of energy, haha.
I'll show you my son's picture haha!

Wash your face with water, apply Baby Cream (bought online) and after a while put on some Danish Skin Lotion Gel (bought at the drugstore).
Do not eat too hot and humid food as a mother, or over milk to the baby is not good, eat some of the wet bar, barley and red bean soup, or cook some kapok + Job's Tears + Poria water to drink.
Thanks for the invite.
There is no specific medicine for eczema, if it is not too serious, pay attention to the care of the baby to wait until the baby is a little older, it will be cured by itself. If it is more serious, please go to a regular medical institution.
The above is personal advice and I hope it will help you
Be sure to keep an eye on the temperature and humidity in the room. Keep the temperature at 20-23 and the humidity at 40-50%, not too hot and not too dry. Choose a non-allergenic moisturizer for your baby's face and body, and rub the moisturizer every three to four hours. If the eczema is particularly severe, you should consider seeking medical attention. I hope this helps.
It's not that you can just wipe it down with medicine, you have to figure out the cause of the eczema, just like the fungus that grows on wood, it will still grow when you take it off. Most eczema creams have hormones, so be careful.
Baby eczema may be the mother did not avoid food during pregnancy, leaving fetal toxicity, can only be slowly adjusted.
If breastfeeding, it is also possible that the mom has had recent dietary problems and a light diet is recommended.
Finally, consider whether it is an allergy, although this is less likely.
It's the mites that infest the affected area.
Could it be a fire from the formula?
I've seen babies that age get acne all over their faces from drinking formula that didn't suit them. Then it went away when they switched formulas.
Is it dry or something else, my baby applies the YumiCare and it's fine. You can try it at home. If it doesn't work, go to the hospital.
